Jeff Passan Calls For MLB Postseason Bubble

data-mm-id=”_a8q359ojz”>Last night, ESPN's Jeff Passan reported Major League Baseball was considering instituting some kind of bubble setup for the playoffs come fall. Considering the lack of success in preventing teams from suffering outbreaks of coronavirus that sidelines them for days or weeks and causes games to be postponed, it makes a lot of sense.Passan went on Get Up this morning to personally advocate for the concept, arguing that there's no time in the playoffs for a team to go a week without playing games in the case of an outbreak.

Dianna Russini: GMs, Coaches Around NFL Believe Jets Fleeced Seahawks in Jamal Adams Trade

data-mm-id=”_24jh36m8c”>Some regular football news broke over the weekend when the New York Jets acquiesced to Jamal Adams' demands and traded him to the Seattle Seahawks. The Jets got a great haul for their best defensive player in the form of two first-round picks, a third-round pick, and steady vet Bradley McDougald. Seattle got a foundational cornerstone for their defense and one of the most versatile players in the league who can come in and make an instant impact for a unit that has fallen off in recent years. It's a rare occurrence in the NFL, but this transaction felt like a win for both teams immediately. Adams did not want to be on the New York Jets and the Seahawks want to maximize Russell Wilson's prime by surrounding him with elite talent. But if you ask Sea…

The Ravens Have Turned Soft

data-mm-id=”_9z95ybuh6″>There was a time when playing the Baltimore Ravens elicited fear in the opposition. Hell no wide receivers didn't want to go over the middle with Ray Lewis and Ed Reed patrolling the grounds, and get the "F" outta here being a quarterback stepping into a throw with Terrell Suggs barreling toward you. But the mystique those three created, along with many others, is no more, replaced instead by a team of floundering fake tough guys as easy to push around as the fish itself.In the Ravens' latest installment of playing "the artist formerly known as the Ravens," they were bullied by Derrick Henry and the Titans hogs up front to the tune of 173 rushing yards. The performance was highlighted by a 29-yard touchdown run in overtime that comp…

Hope You Like Waiting a Long Time for the NBA Finals to Start

data-mm-id=”_r9c81xf4x”>The Denver Nuggets hold a 3-0 lead over the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference Finals. They'll have a chance to complete the sweep Monday night. Nikola Jokic has proven to be far too much for anyone to handle so there's a very good chance it's a four-game breeze. The Miami Heat, somehow, hold a 3-0 lead over the Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference Finals with the chance to give Joe Mazzulla more time to screen The Town beginning tomorrow night. Jimmy Butler is flirting with the line that seperates mortals from gods and the Gabe Vincent-Caleb Martin duo is suddenly incredible, so there's a good chance that one could be done and dusted before you show for work on Wednesday.And all credit to those teams. But you're probably a…
